  39 <PRE>The argument is that the overwhelming majority of IRC users have no idea the
  40 /time command exists, and even fewer are aware that they can specify a
  41 server name after the /time command.  How would these people find out the
  42 Services time zone?  Why does it all have to be so complicated??

  58 &gt;<i> the Services (pickign on Services' clock because Services are whats giving

  62 </I>&gt;<i> no idea they can specify a server with the command.

  64 Erm, what's the argument here?  Services stipulates its timezone in its
  65 timestamps.  As do all the other servers on the network.

  67 Atleast mine do...
